## TL;DR

This review discusses composite Higgs models where the Higgs boson emerges from a new strong interaction sector, covering theoretical embedding, experimental constraints, lattice studies, challenges, and future prospects.

## Contribution

It provides a comprehensive overview of composite Higgs models, including recent lattice studies and future research directions to test the hypothesis.

## Key findings

- Lattice field theory methods are used to explore strong interaction physics.
- Challenges in interpreting numerical results are identified.
- Future directions are proposed to validate or refute the composite Higgs scenario.

## Abstract

Composite Higgs Models explore the possibility that the Higgs boson is an excitation of a new strongly interacting sector giving rise to electro-weak symmetry breaking. After describing how this new sector can be embedded into the Standard Model of elementary particle physics meeting experimental constraints, I will review efforts by the community to explore the physics of the new strong interaction using methods of lattice field theory. Challenges in understanding the numerical results are discussed and an outlook is given on possible future directions allowing to confirm or reject the composite Higgs hypothesis.
